Right.

Good morning.

Take a look at what our
eye-in-the-sky has to say.

What're they calling her?

Henry.

200 miles across,

And we're headed
right down his throat.

I think our passengers
might object.

Not exactly vacation weather.

Make a course adjustment

and see if we can skirt
Henry's west perimeter.

Bridge.

Right away. Patch him through.

It's the home office
for you, captain.

Captain Howard
aboard the Victoria.

Control, over.

I'll check it out personally.

This is the Victoria.

What is it?

Bomb threat.

Take over the bridge.

Notify Henshaw and
neilson to meet me

at the weather fax
compartment immediately.

Yes, sir.

What was that?

Sure is great
to start off a sunny day

Thinking about the
people you like most.

My pal, Susan, for instance.

She's my landlady, the
building maintenance person,

and the only human
being who's figured out

how to keep me organized. So,

How do I repay her?

A 21st century

breakfast, of course.

I wonder how she likes her eggs.

Okay, Susan, this is the future.

Uh-huh.

Or part of it anyway.

I think I'll hang
loose here in the past.

It might be safer.

Shh-shh-shh-shh-shh.

First thing we have to
do is get the fridge open.

There it goes.

Okay.

That's a start. What's next?

Now we put roboter to work.

Isn't she great?

Let's not go
straight to "great."

After all, I did just meet her.

Let me guess... you
like 'em scrambled.

Just watch.

Right to the pot.

Right to the pot, Mac?

Oh.

Love that modern technology.

It needs a couple of
adjustments, I guess.

I guess.

I'm not safe in the
past here either.

Incredible timing.

Mmm.

Whoever you are, I owe
an incredible debt of...

MacGyver?

Gratitude.

Good, I'll take it... right now.

Peter?

On second thought...

Now, hold it.

Mac, I've got a job for you.

Pete, I'm on the verge
of a great discovery.

Sure, you are.

The world's just waiting

to find out about shoe
Polish egg foo Yung.

What was that?

It's my cranky maintenance lady

being her usual self; Cranky.

Mac, I need your help.

Last time you said that to me,

I ended up in Washington wearing
a pin-stripe suit and a necktie.

Yeah, well, that
was a show-and-tell.

This is for real.

It's important.

How important?

Well, a cruise ship
in the north pacific

with 1,100 passengers
and a bomb threat

From some clown
calling himself viking.

How's that?

You make it kinda
tough for a guy to say no.

Team briefing

at my place. I think I'll have

at least one pleasant
surprise for you.

Get here as fast as
possible, will you?

See you then.

I had this contract with
Pete Thornton's outfit

that says I take only
those jobs I want to take.

Now, you'd think I'd
say no once in a while,

especially when Pete wants

to put me in the middle of
the ocean to baby-sit a bomb,

but, no.

Somehow he always seems

to come up with a
convincing argument,

and then he holds
out a carrot like this...

"Special surprise."

Charlie!

Charlie Robinson?!

- MacGyver?
- Is that you?

I don't believe it.

Charlie.

Good to see you.

How you been?

Good, good, real good.

How's Shirley?

Well, lately, Mac,
Shirley's been

a little bit under the weather.

Darned near every morning.

You're kidding.

That's terrific.

Congratulations, pop.

Hey, thanks a lot, Mac.

You know, we've been trying

a long time, and
it finally happened.

That's terrific.

What're you doing here?

Well, what is it you
always say? Um...

Too big to talk about?

You haven't been
talking to a guy

named Peter Thornton, have you?

You got called up
for this one, too?

This is great.

Charlie, you get back

in your car and
you go back home.

Uh-uh-uh.

This one's gonna
bail your old dad out.

You know, uncle Sam found me
in the computer expert file of his

And put $25,000 on the counter.

Look, Charlie,

this isn't you and me in 'nam,

and there wasn't a Shirley

or a little one on the
way back then, either.

Yeah, I know, I know,

and there wasn't a supply
company and a home mortgage

looking bankruptcy
square in the face.

Ah-ah-ah-ah.

Nothing more to say.

I'm in.

Come on.

You got a screw
loose, you know that?

So? What else is new?

Suspects.

50 to start.

More to run down.

Any priority you want set up?

I recruited you to do
a job on this, Mike.

It's yours, the best way
you see getting it done.

That's all I need to hear.

Carlyle, let's get
an epic link-up

with central east and
southwest regions.

I want a profile on these guys.

M.o.'s smoking the wires.

Doggone it, Pete.

Charlie's got no
business taking this gig.

You're Peter Thornton.

Charlie Robinson...

And ignore him.

He has this irrepressible

paternal instinct toward me.

Mac, what is it?

You guys were in 'nam together.

You were a bomb-
diffusing team, right?

Only the best.

Okay, coordination and
control come from here.

We've got direct
communications with the Victoria.

They've got a search
going for the bomb right now.

What's the threat assessment?

Well, there was a warning bomb

that wiped out the weather room

and killed the captain.

Come here.

There is a, uh,
storm front moving in

that makes it impossible

To put the passengers
into lifeboats.

What about sea or air rescue?

No way.

There are no ships

or air rescue units close enough

to get to the Victoria before
she's into the typhoon zone.

So how do we get there?

- Take a bus?
- No, you take

A jet to midway
and a huey chopper

the rest of the way to the ship.

Pete, given any consideration

to tracking down this bomber?

Oh, we're on that,

with an expert... Mike donahue.

No, sir, we just
can't figure it out.

Donahue? There was a donahue

that ran the 227 bomb
squad out of da nang.

Couple of years before our time.

Well, that's him.

Medical discharge and
back in the police department.

He runs one of the best

Bomb investigation
units in the country. Mike?

They've located the bomb.

Near the Victoria's engine room.

Disguised as an
electrical cabinet,

two feet across,
three feet in height,

Below the water line.

Threat assessment verified, eh?

You the guys that get
to find out how it ticks?

Oh, uh, MacGyver,
Robinson... Mike donahue.

Heard a lot about you.

Only the best.

Thank you.

That's what the man
said about you guys.

The question is, how
good is this viking?

Patch from shipping
headquarters coming through.

Viking's on the line.

Put it on the P.A.

Start a trace.

Good morning.

This is viking.

You will be interested
to know that I am aware

that Mr. Thornton
is listening in

from his headquarters.
In fact, I know

all about your efforts,
Mr. Thornton, and the experts

you have recruited to stop me.

Donahue. How's the leg, donahue,
the one you lost in Vietnam?

Robinson?

Congratulations on
the upcoming baby,

And, of course, your ex-partner,
the inventive Mr. MacGyver.

Hey, Pete, nice security.

Mac, I don't want to hear it.

The bomb is set to
go off at 6:30 P.M.,

your time, ten and one
half hours from now.

The way to stop the bomb

is to put together $6
million and deliver it.

The switching station at proctor

Puts the call
somewhere in Westwood.

Notify all field units.

Please, don't disappoint me.

Damn.

6:30.

It's a five-hour
flight to midway,

another two and a half
hours on the chopper.

That gives us about three hours

To work on the bomb
once we get there.

This is whiskey
Sierra bravo to midway tower.

Requesting confirmation on a
stand-by chopper for bomb team.

Midway tower. We
copy, whiskey Sierra bravo.

Proceed directly to
helipad for immediate liftoff.

Ah, the tools of our old trade.

Boy, these bring
back a few memories.

Yeah, like the time you hocked
'em for a night out in Saigon.

Only the essentials, MacGyver.

And if I remember right,

you had one of your
most memorable evenings

In the French quarter.

Oui, monsieur.

Victoria's dead ahead.

We'll have to cable you down.

Then I'm out of here.

No telling when
that storm will roll in.

Let's start with your
bag of bomb tools.

It'll help me line up
on wind direction.

I want you to
cordon this area off

And keep the
passengers way back.

Yes, ma'am.

Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen.

Could you clear
this area, please?

Okay, boys, I've got
cable control in the cockpit.

Let her go.

Bob, we got a
winch malfunction.

I can't override, Mac.

Mac, we're going
to lose our tools.

Correction,
Charlie. They're already gone.

- They've lost their cable. They'll never make it.
- They have to.

Mac, that bomb's
not waiting for anybody.

A little more
than three hours...

That's all we have left.

Where you going, Mac?

Well, we can't just sit up here

and look like a
bunch of dummies.

What do you say
we work out a way

To turn this cargo net
into something useful?

You mean like a rappelling line?

Yeah, something like that.

Mac, you're a
wonder, a true wonder.

Just survival, Charlie.

Hand me that
carabiner, will you?

Listen, you can still go back
to midway on the chopper.

And miss a ride like this?

I think not.

Hang on to that for
me, will you, Bob?

Pick a number between
one and ten. Quick.

Seven.

Close, but wrong. I go first.

Hold her steady, Bob.

We want to keep him dry.

I'll vote for that.

Give me the count

When ready.

Hooking up.

He's on the rail. Stand by.

Bomb's away, Charlie.

Go, Mac.

Contact control.

- Tell them they're on board.
- Right.

I'm Carole Tanner, acting
captain of the Victoria.

Captain, name's MacGyver.

This is Charlie Robinson.

Captain.

The red cargo bag.

Was it important?

Well, that kind of depends
on the bomb, ma'am.

Can we get to it?

Engine room. Follow me.

Captain, what have
you told the passengers?

As little as possible.

How long you planning
on keeping the passengers in the dark

about all this?

We're trying to
steer around a typhoon

which prohibits any
thought of using lifeboats.

And there's a bomb on board.

What do you suggest I do,
Mr. MacGyver, create panic?

Well, if it was me,
I'd be awfully curious,

especially with Charlie
and me coming on board

a couple hours after
that first bomb went off.

Well, tell me, Mr. MacGyver,
would you want to know

that a very good
possibility exists

that you could
die a violent death

Sometime during
the next three hours?

Yes, ma'am, I would.

That's it.

We're convinced it was placed
during dry dock last month.

It wasn't really seen until
we started looking for it.

Ooh, looks just
like it belongs here.

- Yeah, until you pull this panel off...
- Don't touch that.

It's okay.

Our electrical engineer saw it
was the bomb after he opened it.

We've touched nothing else.

Do you believe this?

This guy is no amateur.

Oh, just look at
those bomb triggers, Mac.

Uh-huh.

Mechanical,
electrical, chemical.

Get through one,
you got another.

And pray that we take them
out in the right sequence.

Here.

The connection to Mr. Thornton

in Los Angeles is ready.

Pete?

Yo, Pete?

Yeah? Mac?

I can hear you.

How's it look?

Well, this one looks like
it's going to be a maze

Of triggers before we
get to the real thing.

Mike, are you

hooked up to the ncic bomb file?

Right. Just call out the
trigger m.O.'S, we'll track 'em.

That's a good idea, Mac.

Well, I just hope it pays off.

Now this first
one I'm looking at.

We ran across a
whole bunch in 'nam.

Yeah,

the ling chow bomber.

Oh boy.

Well, I know his technology.

You're looking at some
kind of chemical detonator.

Yeah, powder in a dish.

Um...

Sodium? It could be sodium?

Well, it could be,

But I don't see any
source of water to set it off.

It's sitting below a heat
sensitive thermocouple,

little blue light on it.

Boy, dishful of some
kind of powdered chemical.

Geez, it could be
anything. Well, it's a start.

Okay, guys, one list of ling
chow bomber types coming up.

Well, partner, who
scrubs and who assists?

Pick a number.

Uh, captain?

- Ma'am?
- Hmm?

Oh, uh, yes, Mr. Atkins.

We found another bomb.

D deck, compartment six.

Where exactly is this d deck?

Okay, we're here
below the waterline,

and that's d deck,
compartment six.

Opposite ends of the ship.

Could be synched to
go off at the same time.

I'm counting down from
three hours, six minutes.

Well, partner, looks
like we both scrub.

How can I help?

Uh, just hold a steady course

And think positive thoughts.

I'll do that...

As soon as I've had a
talk with the passengers.

Well, it's just you and me now.

Now hear this.

This is the captain speaking

With an important
message for all passengers.

The explosion that killed
captain Howard six hours ago

was the beginning
of a grotesque threat

made upon all of us
aboard the Victoria.

That's it.

Good luck.

Mac,

can you read me?

Yeah, loud and clear.

Viking must have had
a field day in dry dock.

Is your bomb built into a phony
electrical panel like this one?

Yep. All the triggers are
behind a sealed glass cover.

I've got an exact
copy of yours up here.

This stuff around the edge...

Looks like some
kind of booby trap.

Plastic explosive, maybe?

No, I'd say it's some
kind of a silicon base.

Probably a sealer of some kind.

Well, whatever.

We've got to get inside.

We're counting down fast.

Well, don't push it, Charlie.

We don't want to
rush things here.

I got a hunch that's exactly
what viking wants us to do.

This is viking.

I assume you found
the second bomb by now

and have gathered
the $6 million.

So listen closely.

You must realize that you
do not have either the time

or intelligence to
stop my bombs.

Only I can stop it,

Provided you do
exactly what I tell you.

If my instructions are
not carried out precisely,

you will not hear from me again,

and you will not learn
how to disarm the bombs.

You will put the
money in a briefcase

and place it in locker number
324 at the downtown bus depot.

And, gentlemen, it will be
both futile and dangerous

to try to locate me.

Carlyle?

No trace.

He knows exactly
what he's doing.

MacGyver, Robinson,
we've got a dead end on the trace.

No ling chow suspects.

I'm gonna go ahead
with the money drop.

Do you hear that, Charlie?

Yep, but suppose viking

doesn't live up to his
end of the bargain?

Well, what do you suggest?

I'm suggesting
maybe viking won't tell us

how to turn this thing off.

So we can't sit around and wait.

Pick a number, Mac.

Uh, no, n-no, no, no.

We played that game already.

I guess that means it's
my turn to go first then.

You just follow in my footsteps,

partner.

All right.

But, Charlie, remember
the routine in 'nam...

By the numbers.

Slow and easy,
and we'll live forever.

By the numbers.

Call it out, Charlie.

What's your benchmark?

All right, take it
down this way.

I'm gonna probe the gasket
that runs around the outside

Of the bomb casing.

The one you think
is a silicone base.

I'm using a dental probe
from the ship's doctor.

It's a number three.

I'm sealing the entry
with petroleum jelly.

I'm penetrating the seal.

The chemical in that dish

could be any one of
a number of things.

I just need to touch it.

Get one sample to
test. Then we'll know.

If I could just reach that dish.

I'm getting there.

I'm getting there, Mac.

Hey, easy, easy, Charlie.

It's a vacuum, Mac!

It's a vacuum!

You've gotta fill...!

Charlie!

Charlie...

all right, damage control

has the area
isolated and secure.

The affected compartment
is shut tight and holding.

Now, I want lifeboats ready
and a lifeboat drill scheduled.

The passengers
will be briefed then.

Right.

Are you okay?

You know, Charlie and I

busted 51 bombs
together in Vietnam.

My god.

Charlie used to
put a little scratch

on the wall above our bunks

every time we'd get
back from doing one.

We used to tell
anyone who would listen

That we were
going for the record.

The day we shipped
out, he counted 'em.

51.

Then he laughed, just laughed.

I'm sorry.

If we get out of this one,

it's because Charlie
figured out number 52

in the split second
before he died.

I don't understand.

He yelled "vacuum."

That whole bomb is in a vacuum.

The chemical is phosphorus,

triggered to explode
when air hits it.

The phosphorus flashed,
tripped a thermocouple,

and that was that.

But, but if the bomb is
built inside a vacuum,

then there's no way you
can take that glass face off

without air getting in.

Unless I fill that vacuum
with something else.

Like?

You got any neon signs on board?

The search party
found another one.

In the auxiliary power room.

You got two neon signs?

This is becoming insane.

How many more can there be?

Well, we're sure of the two

and there's no reason to
believe they're not in sequence,

So we're gonna have to
disarm them simultaneously.

I can't be in two
places at once,

so I'm gonna need a new partner.

Any likely candidates on board?

- Me.
- I'll do it.

Carole.

I mean, captain.

The whole ship is
your responsibility.

If those bombs go off,
there'll be no ship to command.

In any case, Mr. Atkins,

you are fully
competent to handle her.

Can we get started?

Yes, ma'am.

MacGyver,

any objections?

As long as you don't
mind taking orders

Instead of giving
them... Captain.

I always bow to experts.

And, um...

I think we can find a
couple of neon lights

in the lounge.

I'd say we're in pretty
good hands, Mr. Atkins.

Yes, sir.

Guess we put the ransom money

in locker 324

and then we pull the key.

How's our viking
man take delivery?

He probably already
made himself a duplicate.

All right, let's go.

Hey.

How about my carrying that?

Why?

I never lifted six
million bucks before.

That'd be a cheap thrill.

I'll carry it.

You keep thinking
about it... out here.

Aw, come on. Why?

Why? Donahue has a dozen cops

Covering this place.

- Donahue's inside.
- Yeah?

I'll be inside.

We need one of our
men out here as a backup.

And you're the lucky winner.

Com check.

Guess who?

Heads up inside, donahue.

The money's coming in.

:
This is the last call

for interstate service
to San Francisco,

Reno and salt lake city.

Boarding at gate three.

All right, I'm going
out to the car.

I'll call in and check
on that m.O. Follow-up.

Right.

Boy, there's less
than an hour to go.

Something has to give.

Yeah, I'm just afraid of
what that something is.

All right, let's
stay alert, people.

All right, captain, what
we're gonna do here

is make a little fair exchange.

What do you say we
replace the vacuum

With a little neon gas?

But I got to admit

I was a little surprised
to see you in charge

of this whole ship.

No more than I, MacGyver.

Everything happened
kind of fast around here.

Just give me directions.

First step:

Take the sharpening
stone we got out of the bar

And score a little piece of
the neon right at the very end.

Here we go.

Now, before you break the tube,

make sure you got
the cork handy to plug it

So the gas doesn't escape.

One step at a time, right?

Right.

I'm almost through.

All right, now break
the tube and plug it fast

like I just did.

Okay.

Done.

I don't believe it.

Now, we're gonna work
the tube through the sealer.

And when I pull the cork,

hopefully I'll get a
momentary suction

and that ought to
give us enough time

To get the phosphorus
out of there.

You with me, captain?

Under the
circumstances, MacGyver,

why don't you call me Carole?

Okay, Carole.

Nice and slow.

I'll go first.

I'm working the
silicone sealer now.

The glass tube is maintaining

an air-tight penetration.

Easy.

Real easy.

Just about through.

This is the tricky part.

Okay, I'm in.

Now I can pop the cork
against the edge of the dish.

Cork's out.

Neon gas exchange
has given me the vacuum.

It's working.

It's extracting the
phosphorus from the dish.

I have an environmental
exchange in the bomb cavity.

The dish is empty.

Removing the tube.

Dumping the phosphorus.

Okay, Carole, it's your turn.

Now work the
tube through slowly.

Keep moving it forward until
you get through the silicone sealer.

I'm petrified, Mac.

Hey, come on.

Who's better than us?

You can do it.

I'm about to break
through the inner seal.

Okay, Mac, I'm through.

Good.

Now go to the dish
and pop the cork.

Got it.

I'm in the dish. It's sucking up

the chemicals, Mac.

I think it's gonna work.

I'm gonna make it. I know I am.

Come on, come on.

Almost there.

Okay, got it.

Well, that's one small
step for local mankind,

and still a mile to go.

That thermocouple's
German made, boltex.

If you guys want to check
it out in the bomber file,

We'll get on to this blue
cauldron on top of the bomb.

You've got less
than an hour now.

Yeah, tell me about it.

You guys any
closer to this viking?

Not an inch.

Stay with that.

:
Mr. Thornton, this is viking.

Despite your efforts to
ensnare me at the bus station,

I have the money.

But you have dealt in bad faith,

so I have decided
not to give you

The bomb-disarming instructions.

Goodbye, Mr. Thornton.

That's it.

Control to field
operations. Come in.

Control, this is
Carlyle. Go ahead.

But we haven't
taken our eyes off it.

Harrison, get this
place locked down.

There's a rumor the six
million's already gone.

I'm on it.

- What is it?
- Thornton says that
viking's got the money.

The money's gone.

He
went in through here.

There's a utility room in the
back of the station, you know?

So nobody saw him, huh?

No, no, no, he had this
thing set up from square one.

Got a false back, hidden panel.

It was a nice, neat job, huh?

There's a false
back on the locker.

Goes into the back room.

Viking must've had the money

two minutes after
we put it in there.

He is smart. He's
too damn smart.

Mac... I got some bad news.

Real bad.

Viking somehow outmaneuvered
us with the ransom.

He got it out of the
locker in the bus station.

We had it staked out,
but we didn't get him.

He just called...
Gloating about it,

but worse than that,

he says that we broke
faith by trying to trap him,

so now he's really
going to punish us.

He's got the $6 six million,

but he's not going to tell us
how to deactivate the bombs.

He's going to let
everybody on that ship die.

So, the bottom line, Mac...

It's up to you now.

Okay, here's where we find
out just how good viking is.

This pipework in
that blue cauldron

looked like our last trigger.

Can I tell you I haven't
got the smallest hint

Of what I'm looking at here?

Well, you're doing just great.

And you're not alone.

All right now, I'm touching

The right-hand connection
at the circuit boards.

Read you.

Mac, freeze it!

What?

The computer says

the ling chow bomber
used an unstable electrolyte

fluid trigger on two
sabotage attempts

in cam ranh bay in 1973.

What does that mean?

The fluid carries a current.

Now our problem is

to neutralize it.

Donahue?

No, this doesn't ring any bells.

Are you sure?

You commanded the
lead sabotage control group

in cam ranh bay '71 to '73.

Well, yeah, but I didn't
ride 'em all personally.

This one...

All right, Mac,
hold on a second.

This could be an acid mixture.

Yeah, that's what I figured.

Breach the piping circuit,

And you release the acid.

And we'd release the
acid into this lateral wiring.

Yeah.

Probably create a short.

I understand.

All right, Carole,
I've got an idea here,

But we're going to need
some things for both of us.

Name them.

Uh, let's see, a pastry tube,

a container of
liquid oven cleaner

and a pint of milk, please.

Milk?

Yeah, low fat, if you got it.

Mr. Atkins?

Ma'am?

You heard Mr. MacGyver.

Pastry tubes, oven
cleaner, low fat milk.

Move.

On the double.

Aye, aye, captain.

MacGyver, milk?

Add a strong alkaline base
and an organic neutral...

If it's an acid,
we're in business.

What if you're wrong?

Well, then it's back to
the old drawing board.

All right, Carole,

This is the best we
have to work with.

Let's just think of
it as one giant dose

of industrial-strength antacid.

First the milk.

About three-quarters
full should do it.

You got that?

Yeah, got it.

Now I'm gonna top it off
with the oven cleaner.

You do the same.

And mix it up real good.

Okay, it's mixed.

Cap's going on.

Ready on this end, Mac.

All right, time check.

19 minutes and 41 seconds,

and counting.

Now I'm gonna pry up
the lead glass stopper seal

on top of the number one
cylinder, upper right quadrant.

Right.

Okay, Carole, this
is probably acid,

so just wait until I get
the stopper seals off.

There's the first one.

It's acid, all right.
I can smell it.

Now... number two.

Okay, Carole, go ahead

and remove your
number one stopper seal.

Mac, is anything
happening with your acid level?

It seems to be okay.

I've removed
number two. You done yet?

Just about...

Got it.

All right, Carole, I'm
putting the first dose

Of neutralizer into the
acid in cylinder number one.

Cylinder two.

There's a reaction starting.

All right, all four are treated.

How you doing?

Okay.

I am now removing
the final stopper seal.

Stopper seal's off.

Good job, captain.

Now inject our milk
and oven cleaner mixture

Into the acid.

Roger.

Am doing.

I have reactions.

All four cylinders are cloudy.

Yeah, mine, too.

Now we wait,

keep our thumbs crossed.

Bridge, this is the captain.

I want the compartment
doors dog shut

on myself and Mr. MacGyver.

Have engineering brace them.

If the bombs blow,

hopefully we'll
confine the explosion.

Ma'am...

Mr. Atkins,

this is no time
for conversation.

Will do, captain.

What do you think, donahue?

Seems like we might
be on the right track.

Well, I am impressed.

You just may have licked it.

Didn't your boys
do a post mortem

On this acid trigger in 'nam?

Well, sure we did, but there
wasn't much left after she blew.

We ended up with
a lot of guesswork.

That's too bad.

Sure like to know if I'm right.

Well, we'll know in
about five minutes.

Hey, Pete,

don't forget, you and I
have got a little golf match

as soon as this job is over.

Yeah, right.

And I'm gonna spot you
a stroke a hole, buddy.

I'm gonna check in with h.Q.

Keep monitoring.

Yeah, I will.

Mac? What's up?

We clear?

Yeah, we're on a
separate channel.

Come on, you never
played a round of golf

In your entire misspent
life. What's up?

Listen, I got a notion here.

Can you check out that
incident at cam ranh bay in '73?

Yeah, sure I can. What is it?

Well, this is a great
piece of booby-trap rigging,

and I mean good.

And anything this fine usually
has a personal signature to it.

It's not technology, it's art.

Art?

MacGyver, it's a damn bomb.

You just lack artistic taste.

Just cross check them
for me, will you, Pete?

Phosphorus,
thermocouple, acid trigger.

Who ran into them in 'nam?

Yeah, it could be
anybody on a decon team.

Yeah, but who was
on each of these?

All of them.

You might be able to narrow
it down to a couple of names.

Maybe just one.

Viking.

Okay, Mac, I'm on it.

MacGyver?

Yeah?

I can see

a definite change in the fluid.

Is that what we want?

Absolutely.

It's neutralizing.

It's clear.

Okay.

Okay, everybody,
last step coming up, stand by.

I'm draining it now.

Mac, everything stopped.

Okay.

We did it.

MacGyver nailed that sucker.

Congratulations.

He sure did.

Uh, listen, I gotta
notify my people.

Stay on top of this, will you?

You got it.

Mac?

What is it, Pete?

We're back on the
separate channel.

The computer ran your pattern.

Came up with one name.

Want a guess?

Try me.

Viking had to be familiar with
each of these trigger-traps.

Especially the acid...
In cam ranh bay.

Is that where
donahue lost his leg?

Yeah.

If you knew, why did you
bother with the computer check?

Well, it gave us proof.

All I had was a hunch.

Well, it nails donahue.

Pete, back on the com line.

Right.

Carole, get the panel off now.

We have to get to the
bottom of the bomb.

It's reactivated.

Okay, Mac,

I see what looks like two fuses.

Uh, yellow and blue.

Yeah, one cuts the
circuit and one fires it.

Which?

Donahue?

Right here.

I'm stuck.

I got less than a minute.

I need some help.

We've got all the pieces

of viking's signature
right here in the bomb.

Stop it and we stop him.

Come on.

I've never made this
kind of call without Charlie.

We'd team it, two heads.

Both experts.

Help me, donahue.

Help me and we'll stop this guy.

What's your head

and your gut say?

Yellow or blue?

Come on, donahue.
You've been there.

You can make a judgment call.

There are 1,100
people aboard this ship.

Blue.

Carole, hold it.

In my tracks, captain.

I go first. Just in case.

Pull the blue.

Thanks a lot, donahue.

I'm pulling the yellow.

No!

yellow, Carole,

yank it.

Viking.

Carole?

How you doing?

I think I'll live.

Me, too.

Get him out of my sight.

Your chopper will
be here in an hour.

Do you have to go?

Well...

I can recommend the cruise.

Gourmet cuisine,
sports and games.

Dancing every night.

It's a great place to relax,

if you've been under stress.

Well...

Do I get to sit at
the captain's table?
